History

Dobre was the ancestral seat of the Dobrzyniecki noble family. Jan Dobrzyniecki, podstoli of Zakroczym, obtained town rights for Dobre from King Sigismund I the Old. It was a private town of the Dobrzyniecki, and later also Massalski and Szydłowski families, administratively located in the Liw Land in the Masovian Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland. Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, Dobre was occupied by Germany until 1944.
